Do all of the next gen consoles come with wifi built in? i know the wii does and the pricier ps3 has it but does the 360?

as im considering on getting a job (im only 16 :P) i think that i wanna get a 360 which is odd since i dislike ms products... ANYWAY

360 Doesn't have WiFi but it has sweet online capabilities, £40 for a years subscription (Which is pretty good) and you get to play on any game online, you can get banned from games if you don't follow rules though, All 360's come with a month gold subcription, if you buy one that comes with Project Gotham racing you get the month from the xbox and a month from the game (I did anyway) in my opinion 360 doesn't need WiFi because it has a very good system for going online, not complicated at all

You get a free ethernet cable anyway so you can play online with wireless or without wireless internet.

You can have wireless though, you just need to buy a bridge for it

No idea why'd they think that, a 360 with Xbox Live gold is all you'll need in terms of console gaming.

how does the ps3 internet fail? the xbox charges you for their live and you need to fork out another £60 for the wifi connector for it.

Playstation 2 had rubbish internet, no doubt the PS3 will have the same setup
And you don't need a wifi connecter, all you need to do is plug your 360 into the network, sign up for xbox live and you're set, £40 a year is very cheap in my opinion, PS2 probably cost more than that because you needed that thing you plug into the console, I don't know about PS3 but Sony just can't do online gaming

Exactly, a good FPS, internet connection and gold membership and you have a years entertainment right there

Lol you can make as many 1 months as u want on the dashboard :P you just need to make a new email address every time

I do it so i can boost people on halo2 :)
